That Sen. #MikeLee hasn’t resigned yet is unbelievable. He has no morals, no ethics. That the #GOP isn’t forcing him to resign is expected - they’re all unscrupulous, spineless and #corrupt.

Secret police forces typically meet 5 criteria: targeting political opponents & dissidents answer directly to dictator the identity of members / operations are secret surveillance operations arbitrary searches, arrests, interrogations, detentions, disappearances & torture. So yeah: ICE= Gestapo

"We now know that Boelter was a Trump voter who had a hit list with other Minnesota Democrats, including Rep. Omar and Keith Ellison. He was not a Democrat or leftist, despite what Elon Musk and right-wing propagandists are spreading on social media."

@tend2wobble one of these people is on Mt Rushmore for a reason.

Physics be damned, it is astonishing that the implied statue of Roosevelt doesn't break out of that mountain and stride across this nation to squash the other man under foot like a roach.

#Israel, w/5 days of missile strikes, has done considerable damage to #Iran & believes it can now deal a permanent blow to Tehran’s #nuclear program—particularly if it gets a little more help from the #US.

But deepening American involvement, perhaps by providing the Israelis with bunker-busting #bombs to penetrate Iranian nuclear sites built deep underground or offering other direct #USmilitary support, comes w/ enormous political risk for #Trump. [& actual risk for US #ServiceMembers.]

I just ran across this iconic photo from the orange wannabe dictator's birthday perade and it reminded me us taxpayers paid for a fireworks show that night.

Why didn't the Army put on a drone show for us rather than polluting the air with fireworks?

England will expand free school meals to 500,000 more children. By 2026, all children in households receiving Universal Credit will be eligible for free school meals in England. The policy will cover an additional 500,000 students and is projected to lift 100,000 children out of poverty while saving families £490 per child each year. Worth every penny.

There were two MAGA terrorist attacks on Saturday—but corporate media refuses to call them that! Worse, corporate media "both sides" political violence when only Trump incites, defends and celebrates violence that serves his agenda. My new article: deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/

The corporate media in the #UnitedStates is pretending #ICE is under NEITHER federal nor state jurisdiction.

That's interesting since it's your #tax money.

But if that is the case, then ICE has no legal protection from any harm, making the premise to use the #NationalGuard nonsense.

JUST IN: Congressman Massie introduces the Iran War Powers Resolution to prohibit US involvement in the Israel-Iran war.

This detail specifically:

« A reporter from @THECITY had overheard one agent say to another minutes before Lander’s arrest, “Do you want to arrest the Comptroller?” »

Lest they try to claim ignorance about who he was.

Padilla was just asking a question. See a pattern?

These ICE goons are completely out of control. Arresting US Citizens, elected officials, and terrorizing our communities.

Comptroller Lander was simply asking for the warrant.

Putin Humiliates Trump With Massive Strike That Kills an American. We need a leader as president, not a failed businessman, a con artist, a billionaire game show host, or a felon!
